Overclocking – Intel Core i7 2600K with Asus Maximus IV Gene-Z

The highest stable clock that I can achieve using Noctua NH-C14 with all 4 core enabled and HT. I’ve used this setting for overclocking test over stock setup. Idle temp is 45c and load temp is over 80c.

The highest overclock that I can achieve in air cooling configuration. I’ve install the Corsair H50 water cooling but not enough to sustain the heat of the Core i7 2600K, so I revert back to air cooling.
